If you have done the rounds with skin experts and dermatologists and still found no relief, maybe it's time you looked for some more natural eczema remedies. I've assembled a few tips here that will assist you in finding some relief from your condition.
Learn to like blueberries. Okay, well maybe that isn't quite so necessary. Skin care experts have found that there is a special ingredient in blueberry leaves called chlorogenic acid. This acid can have excellent effects on your skin dermatitis. In short, it uses completely safe and natural means to get rid of the germs from your skin which cause the irritation and discomfort. It's also an excellent natural anti-inflammatory. So when you apply it to the affected and irritated area you will really notice the difference. You should be able to locate some kind of blueberry leaf extract in your local health food store.
Get into the habit of moisturizing. Anyone with this type of dermatitis needs to keep their skin moisturized as much as they possibly can. It is really just as simple as that. Your skin is a lot less susceptible to itching and tearing if it is soft and flexible. Moisturizing is the way to get to this. At least twice a day, and if possible after bathing apply a fragrance free cream or lotion. You want to apply it after bathing or showering so the moisturizer can seal in the liquid from your bath into your skin. Remember that this may work a lot better if you can find an unscented moisturizer.
Vitamin E is a very strong and natural antioxidant. Applied to the problem areas, it can remove all traces of dirt, bacteria, and anything else that may otherwise have the negative effect of worsening your symptoms.
Utilize oatmeal baths as well as incorporating flax seed oil into your diet. Try to eliminate foods known to cause allergies in many people including those in the dairy family as well as wheat.
If you've have searched high and low for a solution and gotten nowhere with the doctors and specialists, hopefully these tips may bring you some relief. The goal is to actually take some action and be constant with it. If you apply these tips routinely, you can experience significant relief.
